The NieR title has become one of Square Enix's biggest properties in recent years, with both NieR: Automata and NieR Replicant enjoying solid success both critically and commercially since their respective releases.
The fact that there will be more NieR games in the future isn't something anyone is questioning, though of course questions are being raised about when a next game in the series will be announced. It turns out that the announcement may not be far off. Square Enix's Automata Fan Festival is set to take place in Tokyo on November 25-26, with plans for discussions, interviews with the game's developer, and a concert featuring the series' identity.

Interesting... the stage set up for the event seems to hint at an upcoming title that will be announced soon. The front of the stage has 3 logos, with two of them showing the NieR Replicant and NieR: Automata logos, and the third, interestingly, is covered by a chalkboard, but the response to this was a bit of a shock.
At first we thought so, but unfortunately it is just a slogan on the occasion of the sales that the game has achieved, but in any case, we will follow new details during the next event.
Nier: Automata is an RPG game that uses the sword fighting style or what is known as Hack & Slash, and its events take place long after the events of the previous part, so if you are new to the series, do not worry that you have not experienced the first part of it.
